Average Girl : Audition
Got up far too early, arrived at shops and even they were not awake yet.
Realized on way home that my number plate had fallen off (Toyota not doing well this year) … after hunting around the southern suburbs I finally found it. A taxi driver asked me if it was my number plate? I replied, ” No, I pick these things up all the time for fun.” The gaping hole where my number plate used to sit, could also have been a clue.
Day was fairly normal. I did some work…. the parrot bit me and we lost embarrassingly in the cricket against India.
I went to an audition in the evening. Was secretly hoping everyone else had forgotten… no such luck. Thought about shutting the gate and putting up a sign with “Audition cancelled” scrawled across it, but thought this would be unfair, so I didn’t.
I also didn’t have a pen.
Audition went well. There was a super keen candidate who kept proving that she had the ability to memorize three lines. She stated to a bunch of professional actresses that she always loses her voice for important things… like school plays.
Lost my keys (in the abyss that is the female handbag). Had to dump entire contents of bag on floor and watch three tampons race for dear life, to nowhere in particular, in opposite directions.
There were boys… I blushed.
